    So far so good! have a few thousand miles on it now. The oil is not milk so that's great! Love this truck and great to have it back. Really could have used it after hurricane Irma. Merry Christmas!

    did I smoke this gpc

    did I smoke this gpc

    Lifting bracket turbo install question?

    if it was me and a mission to get bolts be dam sure I would be using what I had available

    Lifting bracket turbo install question?

    ok iirc yea those bolts are longer, if your not going to use the lifting brackets it might be good to throw some shorter bolts in there or washer/spacer just for getting the intake manifold down tight.

    you can get some exhaust wrap and achieve the same results or better, I didnt have any heat shield or wrap on my banks kit but may do it

    What's this? Little hole in valley pan?

    decked block/heads affect pushrod length?

    yea should be all good there was 26 out when I checked it, my thought was that the push rod being stock length, maybe it would hold the valve open slightly? i like what I'm hearing that it will compensate

    decked block/heads affect pushrod length?

    Thanks! exactly I am almost there will see about the intake manifold shortly
  23. bj_idi

    decked block/heads affect pushrod length?

    had the block decked 8 thou and the head between 4-6 iirc is that going to affect my push rod length or is stock going to be ok? will the lifters compensate for the extra length on the pushrod now also had piston face cut .010

    how far would you go?

    edit: ok this bearing is made like this, but still about that rough edge would you guys knock that off?
  25. bj_idi

    how far would you go?

    ok thanks just for clarification purposes its not the thrust sides of the bearing or the bearing surface, thats all smooth..its the outside edge of the bearing surface . I suppose I could just wet sand or knock off the little rough edge?
